Good morning,
To maintain a satisfied and diverse workforce with some staffers still working remotely, check your bias. Compared to workers who come into an office, remote employees are often at a disadvantage, because of a phenomenon known as proximity bias: bosses give preferential treatment to workers who are physically closer to them.
According to a recent study of 10,000 workers by Slack's research consortium, Future Forum, proximity bias can lead to inequality in the workplace, potentially putting already-marginalized workers at a disadvantage. Case in point: white male workers now spend the most time in the office, while people of color, women, and working mothers all are more likely to embrace a hybrid work model. Read on for how to make sure you’re treating workers equally, whether they’re in the office or not. |
